Moon Over Marin with I Like Stuff and No Strings Attached

The Black Bull

Well, we managed to knock off 8 songs at Johns Green Door Studios.

‘Still have some guitar overdubs to do and I think I want to re-do a bass track, but overall, we got quite a bit done for two sessions of 8 hours. It’s nice not being in the studio for 13 hours – always felt like a bag of S*** after one of those marathon days. It has been a long time since I was able to spend two full days in a row playing – not bad work if you can get it.

As always, our host, John was surprisingly easy going considering the 8:00 am start times!

Now – time to start the NXNE stuff!
